Every year, the health unit works with local veterinarians to arrange low-cost rabies clinics for animals in Simcoe Muskoka. These clinics occur in the fall and we encourage you to take advantage of them if your dog or cat was not vaccinated during a routine veterinary visit. Please note the following:

  • a current rabies vaccination is required by law in Ontario for all dogs, cats, and ferrets;
  • clinics assist with increasing the number of vaccinated animals in Simcoe Muskoka; and
  • they help reduce the risk of potential rabies exposures to humans
